Revision history [back]

How you installed rosdep is the question. Did you follow http://wiki.ros.org/rosdep#Installing_rosdep that says using apt-get?

~$ locate rosdep
/var/cache/apt/archives/python-rosdep_0.11.4-1_all.deb

That just means you somehow downloaded an installer and doesn't necessarily mean it's installed.
